An effective power of a combination of \(5\) identical convex lenses which are kept in contact along the principal axis is \(25 \mathrm{D}\). Focal length of each of the convex lens is _______.

Pick an option to check your answer.
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(20 \mathrm{~cm}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\text { We know that } P_{e q}=\Sigma P_i\)

\(\therefore \text { given all lenses are identical }\)

\(\therefore 5 P=25 D\)

\(\therefore P=5 D\)

\(\therefore \frac{1}{f}=5 \Rightarrow f=\frac{1}{5} \mathrm{~m}=20 \mathrm{~cm}\)

Hence option \((1)\)
